About Me

I'm a 37 yrs old single mother of two, boy 23 n girl 9. My son is studying tourism management at a local university and my daughter is in class 5. I went to school up to form 2 bt dropped out when I got pregnant with my son. I would wish to start a farming n poultry rearing, as this has been a long time ambition.

My Business

I bought n started hiring out plastic chairs three years ago. Business isn't bad though I would wish to add a tent as this will boost my income n help me pay me son's fees with less difficulties. With an added income, I will be able to take care of my family's basic needs and also save for my daughters education.

Loan Proposal

This loan will help me in purchasing additional info plastic chairs for my chair hire business. I will use it to buy 12 chairs at a cost of 60usd. This will increase my income by more than 50% which I intend to purchase a tent to hire out the chairs with.

    We haven't heard from you for several weeks, and you're getting very behind with your payments. Please contact [email protected] to discuss the best way forward. We want to help you, but you have to do your bit too!
    God bless you,

    Please can you contact Zidisha to arrange a lower weekly installment.That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get another loan. You can increase your installments again when you have more money coming in. Zidisha is very helpful and wants you to succeed rather than struggle!
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    Hi. Its been a while since I made any repayment on my loan. I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to my lenders n the Zidisha community at large for the inconvenience this may have caused. I was down with pneumonia n was hospitalized for two weeks. Thanking God I'm better now n ve resumed work. I do promise to clear my loan in the next couple of weeks. Thank y'all for your support n thanks Kennedy Onyango for your concern.

    Please contact Zidisha and ask them to reduce your installments to a more manageable amount for a while. That is better than letting yourself get behind with your payments, which can make it harder to get a loan in the future.
    God bless you,
    Wendy

    Caroline, following my calls to you earlier today, kindly re-adjust your loan repayments and ensure you pay weekly.
